Built to order. Ask for lead time.
Overview
1,330 mm X travel on box ways, BT-40 or BT-50
The VESTA-1300B⁺ is a vertical machining center for heavy parts cutting, with the same 670 mm Y axis and 1,500 x 670 mm table as the VESTA-1300+ but box ways in place of LM guides. Its feed system runs on Turcite-lined box ways with Hwacheon's air semi-floating system. Travels are 1,330 / 670 / 650 mm and the table carries 1,300 kg. Spindles run from BT-40 at 10,000 to 15,000 rpm to BT-50 at 8,000 rpm direct-coupled or 6,000 rpm gear-driven.

Features
- 01Box ways with air semi-floatingThe feed system runs on high-rigidity Turcite box ways with Hwacheon's air semi-floating system, to absorb cutting vibration in heavy work.
- 02Longer X stroke, same footprintX stroke is 1,330 mm, 30 mm more than the VESTA-1300B, on the same installation area.
- 03Five spindle optionsBT-40 at 10,000, 12,000 or 15,000 rpm (18.5 kW, 117.7 Nm), BT-50 direct-coupled at 8,000 rpm (15 kW, 287 Nm), or BT-50 gear-driven at 6,000 rpm, which the catalog rates at 25 / 15 kW and 650 Nm.
- 041,500 x 670 mm tableThe table carries 1,300 kg and takes up to five 6 in vices on five 18 mm T-slots at 125 mm pitch.
- 05Magazines for either taperThe swing-arm, memory-random magazine holds 30 BT-40 tools; BT-50 machines hold 24 tools, with 32 as an option. The catalog also lists a 40-tool magazine as an option for BT-40.
